Without him the Titans would have been this good. FatWhale White would have had over 1000 rushing yards, the defense would have still been dominant, and Kerry Collins would have still been the steady hand of the offense.

Not to mention the Titans were a playoff team last year and not a reclamation project.

Without Matt Ryan, the Falcons would have been 6-10 at best with Chris Redman under center.

Im glad this jerkoff is whining about it. Another thing his mind is on other than the playoffs. Between him and White, the team might just self implode.

What a tool. Not only was Ryan the obvious choice, but Johnson wasn't even the top rookie running back. That would be Matt Forte.

I WAS a fan of this kid until I read this blurp. With having the NFL TIcket, I was able to watch quite a few Titan games. And, as already stated, they would have been probably equally as good without him. However, the argument could be made that if he wasn't in the timeshare he is with "Lovehandles" White, he probably could have taken the prize. My opinion is that Ryan is SO instrumental in turning around that franchise, along with Michael Turner, that it had to go to him. I also agree that Johnson wasn't the best rookie RB this season. My vote would go to Steve Slaton......

Slaton was the best running back this season for the Rookies. The low expectations put upon him and his explosion into the NFL down in Houston has made him my choice for the Offensive Rookie RB of the season.

I spent 4 years cheering against Slaton at WVU being a Pitt fan...seeing him at the next level, I've kind of become a fan. He's good.
